On the road to diploidization? Homoeolog loss in independently formed populations of the allopolyploid Tragopogon miscellus(Asteraceae) (2009)

Tate, Jennifer A, Joshi, Prashant, Soltis, Kerry A, Soltis, Pamela S, Soltis, Douglas E

Abstract Background Polyploidy (whole-genome duplication) is an important speciation mechanism, particularly in plants. Gene loss, silencing, and the formation of novel gene complexes are some of the...

Paraphyly of Tarasa (Malvaceae) and Diverse Origins of the Polyploid Species (2003)

Jennifer A. Tate, Beryl B. Simpson

A molecular phylogenetic analysis of the Andean genus Tarasa (Malvaceae) and related genera yielded unexpected results regarding generic boundaries, the origins of polyploidy, and the morphological...

Evolution and Expression of Homeologous Loci in Tragopogon miscellus (Asteraceae), a Recent and Reciprocally Formed Allopolyploid

Tate, Jennifer A., Ni, Zhongfu, Scheen, Anne-Cathrine, Koh, Jin, Gilbert, Candace A., Lefkowitz, David, ...

On both recent and ancient time scales, polyploidy (genome doubling) has been a significant evolutionary force in plants. Here, we examined multiple individuals from reciprocally formed populations...

Concerted Evolution of rDNA in Recently Formed Tragopogon Allotetraploids Is Typically Associated With an Inverse Correlation Between Gene Copy Number and Expression

Matyášek, Roman, Tate, Jennifer A., Lim, Yoong K., Šrubařová, Hana, Koh, Jin, Leitch, Andrew R., ...

We analyzed nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription and chromatin condensation in individuals from several populations of Tragopogon mirus and T. miscellus, allotetraploids that have formed...
